Some features of the YT-1210 would be the basis of the YT-1300 light freighter. The ship had the familiar saucer-shaped hull of the YT-1300, but lacked the forward cargo loading mandibles that gave that ship its familiar outline.[6] It also included two sensors protruding from the bow, which could be big, tempting targets for anyone attacking the YT-1210.[6]

The YT-1210 was 28 meters in length[3], and the standard crew consisted of a pilot and a gunner.[6] The stock YT-1210 could carry up to 100 metric tons of cargo, and was armed with a single laser cannon. The ship had a small cabin for the captain, and it came equipped with a small refresher station. A YT-1210 could be, and were, modified by their owners.[6]

YT-1210 was the main production light freighter from Corellian Engineering Corporation, until the YT-1300 arrived. Unfortunately, once sales of the YT-1300 took off at some point before 33 BBY, the highly capable YT-1210 freighter had a shortened production run.[6] The YT-1210 was not a poor design, but it was not on par with the speed of YT-1300 and it lacked some of the amenities that the YT-1300 had. Still, the YT-1210, like its more popular successor, could be found throughout the galaxy.

↑ 3.03.1Scum and Villainy, Deckplan on page 65 clearly shows scale and can be measured to show the length of 28 meters and indicates the YT-1250 is produced using "a huge back stock of YT-1200s and YT-1210s."
